TIE CHAPPELL CUTTING CASE.
walker Unable TO Appear and the
Case Continued.

Edloe Chappell, the coored proprietor Of
q bar-room on Seventeenth street known a.
the "MornIng Glory" was before the P0-
lice Court yesterday morning charged With
assnulting, cutting, and wounding William
Walker with some dull instrument.
Walkers mother testified that he was unable
TO appear; that he was seriously hurt, and
unconscious yet. The case was continued
until Friday, and Chappell was bailed Tor
his appearance at that time.
From the testimony OF the witnesses ex.
amined on the question OF bail 1t seems
that while Walker, with friend, was in
Chappelps place Friday night he became
disorderly. and the pro arietor ordered him
out. A difficulty ensued, in which Chap
pell. who was behind the bar, threw bot
tie at Walker, and the latter returned the
compliment with a lamp which was on the
bar. counter, which missed Chappel, but
broke several decanters on the shelf.
When Walker went out Chappell followed
him with several bottles IN his hand.
No one saw him throw the bottles after
he had left the house, but soon afterwards
Walker went to Cooks bar.room, on Broad
street near the Chesapeake and Ohio
depot, and was bleeding profusely from a
wound on his head, which, he said, had
been inflicted by Chapel. The wound
was washed and bandaged by Cooks oar
tender, after which he left the house.
About twenty minutes afterwards Walker
was found near the Chesapeake and Ohio
depot, lying upon his face in an Insensible
condition. He was taken up by his friends,
placed in hack, and sent home.

THE STRANGE WOMAN IN JAZZ.
she By Mfssaks Came 10 Richmond In
stead sT Phfiadsiphta.

The Dispatch OF Sunday announced the
fact that there was confined IN the ely iail
for yagrancy woman who spoke strange
language. Another mystery about her Is
that no one knows her name. When she
was first before the Police Court no one
was able to understand what she said or
what her name was. This being the case
she was committed under the name OF
"sarah Traveller" When her first term
was out she was discharged, but
having no home she soon had
10 be brought before his Honor ayain.
This time she was committed as Janet
Myrou. Messrs. A. l.. Wexler and A.
Triteld, "a native OF Turkish pr viuce,)
who live in the city, having seen l. item
IN SUNDAYS paper, went down that day and
conyersed with the prisoner for short
while. They found that she speaks the
Ara lie tongue and is native OF Palestine.
She came from Alexandra, Egypt, TO
Havana and thence TO Amercia. She de-
sired to go to Phiiadelphii, where she has
a daughter, but through mistake came to
Richmond. They did not learn the wo-
mans name.
lIr. We&ler says that the woman Is a
Catholic. Added TO her other misfortunes
she has lost her poeket.book containing
numerous letters from her daughter 10
Philadelphia and the latter's address.
when she shipped at Alexandria sac paid
the agent all the money she had (sj2). aud
he told her that she would receive S25 OF 1t

Mr.. Wexler is native OF Damascus, aud
OF the Hebrew faith. He came 90 this
country uia Alexandria, and has been In
America nine years; good portion OF bis
time having been spent In Philadelphia.
He is at present employed at Leonard's
